A Bagpipe Lesson For Stirling Castle

The tune I have chosen for this bagpipe lesson is the strathspey, Stirling Castle. The Castle is the present Headquarters of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, and the location of the Regiment's Museum. See Wikipedia on Stirling Castle for good details. This Wikepedia article has excellent information about Stirling Castle.

The tune is suitable for advanced beginner and advanced pipers.

Lesson Pointers

Observe the four beats to the bar, the relative controlled duration of dotted notes akin to the dance.Tempo depending on recital, dance, or pipe band, about 120 BPM; recital slightly steadier tempo.

This tune goes well with the strathspey Balmoral Castle
